The Newest Addition to the EDP Family: Meet Alaina
You guys, the EDP fam is GROWING and I couldn't be more excited about it. No no, we're not getting a dog or having a baby (give a girl a minute!)... I'm talking about my actual team. We've technically been a team of 3 behind the scenes for awhile now and in looking towards the future I want to be able to give you guys ALL the content via my lense but also have some different perspectives especially when it comes to wedding planning, that freelance life, and relationships. Sooo please give a warm welcome to Alaina. We've known each other for years and I'm just so happy to have her on board. I'll let her share a little about herself and can't wait for all the wedding knowledge she's going to drop over the next few months. Don't forget to follow her on IG @alaina_zebley
Meet Alaina
Hello EDP family! I can't tell you how excited I am to be a part of this space and network, Ashley truly has the best fans. You’re probably wondering who I am, and/or why I’m guest writing on Everyday Pursuits…right? Well, I've known Ashley for quite some time now, we both grew in our careers but continued to cross paths with a similar network in the fashion industry. Over the last several years I graduated from FIDM, became a partner at a start-up Fashion/Digital Influencing company, started that Freelance life, got married and moved back to the east coast. It's been a whirlwind to say the least.
Since January I've been lucky enough to be a part of the Pursuit Digital team on the editorial side and I'm hoping to be able to bring you knowledge, insight and tips on ALL. THE. THINGS - picking up Ashley's lingo already :) I'd like to call myself an expert when it comes to wedding planning, others may think differently...but I've had 5 years experience in the event space, planned my own wedding start to finish and have been a MOH and Bridesmaid 4 other times this year. It certainly has been the year of LOVE that's for sure, and now that our girl and soon to be MRS. Ashley is engaged #finally, we will be talking all kinds of wedding things EEEEK!!
Stay tuned, this week I will be discussing how to budget and what types of things to splurge on for the big day! I'll also be sharing my thoughts and experiences on adjusting to freelance life, married life and just balancing life in general because let's be honest, it's HARD trying to juggle it all.
I can't wait to dive in and be a part of this amazing audience!
